Price when article was written: Not in stock at this time
What do you get in the box
You will get two chairs, a love seat and coffee table with this set. Powder coated steel frames will be covered with a woven resin wicker material. Thick 4 inch cushions with buttons in the middle of the backs will give you plenty of style and comfort. If you have a space that is bigger than 8 foot by 8 foot, this set will fit nicely.
Seating will give you four places to sit. Cushions fit tightly in place and can be easily removed for storage or cleaning. 250 pounds is the recommended capacity for each sitting position.The resin wicker skirting will go almost all the way to the floor.
Chairs will be 32 inches wide, 31 inches deep and 34.25 inches high. They will weigh only 18 pounds without cushions. Back cushion is 24 inches wide, 22 inches wide and 4 inches thick. Seat cushion is 24 inches square with a button in the middle.
Love seat is 55 inches wide with the same other dimensions as the chairs. The love seat is 27 pounds without cushions. The back cushions are the same as chairs, seat cushion is one piece that is 47 inches wide and 24 inches deep.
Table will have a tempered glass top that is removable, if it gets broken you can replace it. It does not have square corners, a glass shop will have to custom cut you a new one. A woven resin wicker shelf will support the legs and give you someplace to store your reading material.
The table will be 40 inches long, 21 inches wide and 19 inches tall. It is a standard size for most outdoor coffee tables. It will weigh 25 pounds with the glass top inserted. It is recommended not to put over 100 pounds on the table, have to keep kiddos from sitting on it to prevent the top from breaking.
Assembly of your conversation set
This set will come in two boxes. Assembly will take a little time and all tools are included in the hardware pack. Two people will make assembly of the chairs and love seat a little less of a pain. Trying to hold things in place while starting the screws can be a pain. Do not tighten hardware until all are started in the piece that you are putting together.
Table will require the legs to be attached to the top. Then the support shelf ties the legs together. When all hardware is started, set on legs and tighten, this will insure it will sit flat when done. Insert glass top and you are ready.
Sitting pieces will require the back to be connected to the seat. Then the arms need to be attached to the seat/back assembly, this is the time when extra hands will be most useful. When all screws are started, you can tighten them. Apply cushions and you are ready to sit.
Approximate assembly time depends on your skills. It should take an average person about an hour with a helping hand when needed. A cool refreshing adult beverage should get someone to help when needed.
Care of your patio furniture
A simple mild soap and water will be all that is needed to keep your patio conversation set looking like new. Do not use any chemicals to clean this set, even glass cleaner will damage the painted surfaces.
May want to check the screws for tightness once a season to keep your set stable.
Cushions should be stored when not in use to prolong their life. I do have some storage solutions in a post here. If you need replacement parts, please contact our Consumer Relations team at 1-800-628-8321, depending on availability you can get replacement cushions and glass table top.
If you do not store your cushions, get a cover for your set for storage when not in use. See some of my patio furniture cover solutions here.
Pros
- Glass can be replaced if broken
- Come replacement cushions are available from manufacturer
- Resin wicker will last a long time in outdoor conditions

Hello John, great review! I like all your outdoor furniture, gives me something to think about this winter as to which one to get this spring?
With this set here and maybe with all the wicker sets, would you recommend covering in the winter, so paint does not fade? As you say if you can’t put them inside, to be sure to store the cushions inside, and I am assuming it would be good to get a tarp to keep snow or rain off the wicker?
Thanks for this review and talk soon.
Wayne,
Yes I would recommend some kind of weather protection during the winter months. The paint will not fade, it is built into the resin wicker. It can become damaged due to ice or heavy snow though. There are several options for covers for the whole unit or just some storage options for the cushions on my site.
